The coarse aggregate specific gravity test (Figure 1) is used to calculate the specific gravity of a coarse aggregate sample by determining the ratio of the weight of a given volume of aggregate to the weight of an equal volume of water. It is similar in nature to the fine aggregate specific gravity test.
aggregate and crushed stone coarse and fine aggregate are produced by crushing natural stone. Crushing, screening, and washing may be used to process aggregates from either sand and gravel deposits or stone quarries. Aggregates may be produced from igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic rocks, but geological type does not by itself make an …
— With the development of gyrations, the coarse aggregates were moderately displaced by continuous slipping with little rotation. The marked aggregates' movement was enhanced at a large asphalt binder content or high compaction temperature. The mobility of the coarse aggregate was related to the asphalt mixture's workability.
3. Grading of Aggregate: The grading of coarse aggregate also affects the bulk density. A well-graded aggregate with a variety of particle sizes, from larger to smaller, will have a higher bulk density as compared to a poorly graded aggregate. 4. Porosity: The presence of pores or voids in the coarse aggregate also affects the bulk density. The ...
Step 5: Estimation of Coarse Aggregate proportion:-From Table 3 of IS 10262- 2009, For Nominal maximum size of aggregate = 20 mm, Zone of fine aggregate = Zone II And For w/c = 0.5 Volume of coarse aggregate per unit volume of total aggregate = 0.62

— The main objective of this research is to investigate experimentally the effect of crushed and uncrushed coarse aggregate on the properties of hardened concrete (compressive strength) by adopting the American Concrete Institute (ACI) and the British Department of Environment (DoE) methods. Concrete mixes were designed, concrete …
Broad coarse-aggregate gradation ranges are listed in Table 2 of ASTM C 33. These broad gradation bands are for use all across the country. Once a gradation is selected for a project, maintaining the gradation within tight ranges will achieve greater batch-to-batch consistency. This is typically accomplished by properly stockpiling aggregates ...

the ratio, expressed as a decimal, of the amount (mass or solid volume) of coarse aggregate in a unit volume of well-proportioned concrete to the amount of dry-rodded coarse aggregate compacted into the same volume ( b / b o ).
This procedure covers the determination of the percentage, by mass, of a coarse aggregate (CA) sample that consists of fractured particles meeting specified requirements in accordance with AASHTO T 335-09.

Coarse aggregate is the one retained on 4.75 mm IS Sieve. When the aggregate contains sizes differently in suitable proportions, it is called graded aggregate. The workability of concrete is also improved with well graded aggregate. Single size aggregates make the concrete harsh and does not work well with trowel and between the cables, strands ...
Aggregate is usually described as either coarse aggregate (retained 4.75 mm) or fine aggregate (passing 4.75 mm). Aggregates generally make up about 95 percent of the total mass of hot-mix asphalt mixtures and 80 percent by mass of concrete - aggregate properties are, therefore, critical for quality hot-mix asphalt or concrete.
